Breakthrough!

I do love this bit where you finally break through the middle and now the shaping takes place from the inside out as well as from the outside in.

From here it feels like progress is accelerating as soon you can judge how the sweeps align. Slightly panic inducing at times when nothing really seems to come out where you thought it would but great satisfaction when parts come together

.

From making the hole through to this point seemed to take no time at all and it is quickly coming to the really fun part of making a sculpture.
